Yes, RM30 for the SIM pack and it comes with 365 days validity and 1GB data free.

There's a cheaper option which is RM25 for 1GB but only valid for 60 days. You can see it here.

Should be no problem to use. Just do whatever setup you need in a phone, then transfer the SIM card to your MiFi.

The new tablet SIM rm0.00 credit, is there minimum balance to purchase? if the balance is rm45, can purchase the 2GB?
Btw, can I use the hotlink share top up to buy 2GB and extend another year after the 1st year validity expired?

no balance required if you have a pass already... so you can buy 2GB pass with exactly RM45 credit

not sure about Share-A-Top-Up, but I expect it may work.

I just saw Hotlink Tablet plan SIM where the enclosure was in white color (Mine bought Last month was Red in color) but the data plan is different

rm25 1GB for 2 months vs rm25 for 1 month
rm40 2GB for 1 year vs rm45 2GB for 1 year

Why there are 2 different condition despite the same Hotlink Tablet Plan?

Only one plan, I think Maxis made changes since launch. The printing on that simpack out-dated.

Hi Hotlink, this is useless to have a plan purposely for Internet but cannot install What'sApp. Should we complaints to MCMC, http://www.complaint.cfm.org.my/, or your HQ before you can enable it?

Hi danielSinclair,

Please be informed that the Hotlink Tablet plan do not carry any mobile functions like call and SMS. It served as mobile data usage for tablet or secondary devices.

Thank you

If it's the Hotlink Tablet Plan SIM pack that you've bought, then you've picked one that can only be used for data and not call nor SMS. Why complain to MCMC when the choice was yours?

For prepaid plans, only the #Hotlink and Hotlink FAST can let you use data, calls, and messages. If you want Validity 365, then choose Hotlink FAST, though the 1GB will not stay there for a whole year.

Anyway, if you want to install Whatsapp to your tablet, I'd suggest doing it with another regular SIM card, then swap and use the Hotlink Tablet Plan SIM card for data access after the app has been activated.

Yeah, I agree with you on this point. This plan cannot receive SMS, which mean cannot receive CODE or TAG to use whatsapp or other apps.

Currently, I put this Tablet Plan SimCard on Mifi, and cannot receive SMS, so cannot check on my account detail thru other smartphone/tablet... icon_question.gif doh.gif
Don't know how to check account detail rclxub.gif

Can your MiFi handle USSD? If so, you can check pass status under *136*9# option 1.

I downloaded and installed Red app onto my Xiaomi 1S dual sim phone with tablet sim in sim slot 1.
Upon launching the red app for the first time, I was promted to enter the tablet sim phone number in order to receive the TAC via SMS. Apparently, I can't receive the TAC.
Please guide me how do I use Red App with tablet sim. My tablet sim data is about to finished and I need to check data balance and buy a new data pass.

Yeah this sim can't receive sms and please complain to Maxis on that. You can email them at customercare@maxis.com.my.

Use your phone keypad instead:

*136*9# for status

*100# for top up and pass purchase
